Playing By Heart
Despite the cool ocean air, the sand was still warm to the touch as Tina treaded towards her destination. Taking heed of the numbered lifeguard towers, she continued on until she recognized Bette sitting peacefully and taking in the majestic view before her.
Stopping for a moment just to drink in the sight, Tina gazed dreamily at her new love. Gathering her thoughts, she pressed on until she was standing just beside Bette.
The hairs on the back of Bette’s neck had long stood at attention when Tina was yards away and that familiar stirring Tina felt that first night she met Bette was alive and well in her stomach at the same time.
“You mind if I sit next to you?” the blonde asked timidly.
“Actually, I’d prefer it.” Bette responded without breaking her stare from the crashing waves.
Tina gingerly slipped her feet out of her Reefs and mirrored Bette’s form by hugging her legs to her chest, resting chin on her knees as she watched the surf break.
The two were silent for a few minutes, but it wasn’t an awkward silence. They weren’t touching, but they were enjoying just being in the company of one another. Even without physical contact, both women felt the incredible intimacy of this shared moment.
Tina rested her left cheek on her knees so that she was now facing Bette. She studied the brunette’s delicate profile. It was obvious that Bette had been doing some serious pondering. Tina couldn’t help but smile.
“You are exactly where Kit told me I could find you.” She said softly. Her right hand reached out to tame a wild lock of brown hair.
The moment Tina’s fingers came into contact with the soft shell of Bette’s ear, the brunette breathed in deeply and closed her eyes for a moment. She smiled at Kit’s intuition and opened her eyes again to the water.
“Daddy used to bring us here during the summer and play his saxophone on the boardwalk. Kit would sing and I would occasionally bring my keyboard and play along. Even though people walking by would toss change into his instrument case, he never played for the money. He just loved to play.”

MeLL – Welcome back!!! … I’ve missed you, your writing and your story so this is a real treat having a double post to enjoy today! Loved, loved, loved how well you channeled Joyce in your last chapter (just as hilarious as she was on the show). And thank you for the sunny trip to the beach with our girls (who still sound hot despite their fashion violations ). It’s cold and snowy here so it was nice alternate universe to visit. Oh and I love how sweet and playful your B&T are too. Okay, enough rambling…. Enthusiastically looking forward to your next post! Cheers, iHH xx
ah, sweet sweet update. cheers buddy.
Awesome!!!! I’ve meant to tell you for ages how much I love this story. I caught up with all the chapters in what… 3 days, at most! It’s fantastic, and I’m so glad you keep getting back to it everytime. So worth it! And thanks so much for sharing it with us! Take care, Kw
Loved it. Bring on the next one. Tina’s admission of love for Bette was wonderful and her quite admonition to not ruin it was wonderful as well. Thanks.
Aaahhhh…. Such a beautiful moment! Though their outfit must be so out of place, but the moment is just there and love is just in the air 😉 anyway of to her place too… Lol and I’ll reach there once you posted of course … Otherwise I’ll be stuck here near tower 19 by the ocean, not too bad if B&T is still here though :-D Thanks MeLL for another update!! Please keep them coming :-)
XXXXXXXXXXXX,,,,,,,XXXXXXXXXXXX.
Hip-Hip-Hooray! You’re back. So awful when technology lets a little thing like liquid spilling all over it get in the way (lol). Now on to the story. I’m giving Tina a pass on her fashion mishap (brown, grey and black… Oh my?) b/c she was searching for Bette. But she better not wear white after Labor Day, unacceptable! Great update and glad you are back to your writing ways . PPS!
Just perfect.
Thanks for the chapter!!!! Short, but sweet !!! Did I mention it was short????? Lol
Hey MeLL! I’m almost too giddy seeing your posts. I love Joyce telling Bette about her first declaration….you write her sarcasm perfectly. Make good use of that new laptop and keep posting. Fantastic that you’re back. You were missed along with the story.
